Subsequent kernel-managed arena-resident structures (e.g. per-CPU set_cmask cmask) carve their storage from this pool. scx_arena_pool_init() creates a gen_pool. scx_arena_alloc() returns the kernel VA. On exhaustion, the pool grows by claiming more pages via bpf_arena_alloc_pages_sleepable(). Chunks are added at the kernel-side mapping address; callers translate to the BPF-arena form themselves if needed. Allocations sleep (GFP_KERNEL) - they may grow the pool through vzalloc and arena page allocation. All current consumers run from the enable path (after ops.init() and the kernel-side arena auto-discovery, before validate_ops()), where sleeping is fine. scx_arena_pool_destroy() walks each chunk, returns outstanding ranges to the gen_pool with gen_pool_free() and then calls gen_pool_destroy(). The underlying arena pages are released when the arena map itself is torn down, so the pool destroy doesn't free them explicitly. v2: Switch scx_arena_alloc() to a loop.
